My name is Darryl Akins, aka D-Real. I am a I am also an improvising, poetic, freestyle rappin, action figure collecting, geeked out movie reviewer. I do videos on things nerdy and geeky as well as cultural and social issues, in a fun but wise way. I'm well spoken and educated, but sometimes (a lot of times) the street comes up out of me. Be Real with D-Real; Edutainment in one convenient package; Kind of like Sesame Street, but for adults. I speak on a myriad of topics like pop culture, current events and movies, as well as host several guests who help to elaborate on and enhance the day's topic. I like to laugh, entertain and bring perspectives that are either overlooked or not considered in most videos. I dig research as much as the next guy, but sometimes there's nothing like a 100% dyed in the wool kicking it like I see it (which tends to happen more often then not). Fun sometimes. Perspective driven most of the time. Real, ALL THE TIME. Real Edutainment.
